Abstract

In this paper, we extend the result of Guccione et al. [1] about the centralizer of an ad-invertible element to a field of nonzero characteristic. Indeed, we have proved that, in a nonzero characteristic field, for any element $d \in A_1$, if there exists $e \in A_1$ such that $[e, d]=1$, then the centralizer of $d$ is equal to the polynomial algebra $C[d]$, i.e., $Z(d)=C[d]$, where $C$ is the center of $A_1$.
